An exhibition of alpine plants and photographs at Hilliers Arboretum  27th and 28th March 2010

Members provided an excellent display of plants, especially considering the severe and prolonged winter that we have just experienced!  There were also  also some superb photographs, and interesting and informative display boards.

This is a small selection of the plants exhibited.
